Wow, thank-you @alexkutsan for posting this issue and immediately confirming my issues (frontend not accessible). I was to the point where I was pulling down the source, building my container locally from source and just about to start prodding at the code. After all of this I was about to open this issue and say "the documentation makes it seem like this will work and despite all my best efforts, it doesn't".

I'm always suspect that I'm doing something wrong (a relative high degree of complexity getting the various things to all cooperate, MQTT, reverse-proxy, etc, etc.) and in this case I wasn't. Well, I should have looked for this 2 hours ago when my first couple of attempts failed.

Knowing this is really helpful. I think first things first, the web needs to be put in its own web service (who serves HTTP from C these days 😄 ??). I'll do that now.

Unsure if this is supposed to be funny. If it isn't, you might wish to glance at the source code of all of the world's largest HTTP servers.

@alexkutsan we're somewhat touchy when people write "should be described".

I'm fully aware that the documentation and possibly lots of other things are lacking, and we don't do this on purpose. If you think you can contribute good documentation, I'll be the first to say "thank you".

It was intended as a somewhat of a joke. I am well aware of any point you might be making with respect to all of the world's largest HTTP servers however I would say there's a large distinction between using an HTTP server written in C and serving static resources yourself with a custom built HTTP server.

Having said all of that I definitely don't want to devolve into anything and I certainly meant no disrespect. So I will issue my sincere apology and move on (not from the project per se but from the ill-conceived joke).

Thanks for clarifying. :-)

Understood, and we've now done this, however sans docker. We hope our quicksetup will very greatly assist people who don't spend their whole day in front of a command line. :-)

Feedback is appreciated at the quicksetup repo.
